Multiwavelength Variability of the Blazars Mrk 421 and 3C 454.3 in the High-State

Haritma Gaur, Alok C. Gupta, Paul J. Wiita

We report the results of photometric observations of the blazars Mrk 421 and 3C 454.3 designed to search for intraday variability (IDV) and short-term variability (STV). Optical ph…

Quasi-simultaneous two band optical variability of the blazars 1ES 1959+650 and 1ES 2344+514

Haritma Gaur, Alok C. Gupta, A. Strigachev +8

We report the results of quasi-simultaneous two filter optical monitoring of two high-energy peaked blazars, 1ES 1959+650 and 1ES 2344+514, to search for microvariability and short…

Spectral Energy Distribution variation in BL Lacs and FSRQs

Bindu Rani, Alok C. Gupta, R. Bachev +9

We present the results of our study of spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of a sample of ten low- to intermediate-synchrotron-peaked blazars. We investigate some of the physical…

Optical Intraday Variability Studies of Ten Low Energy Peaked Blazars

Bindu Rani, Alok C. Gupta, U. C. Joshi +2

We have carried out optical (R band) intraday variability (IDV) monitoring of a sample of ten bright low energy peaked blazars (LBLs). Forty photometric observations, of an average…
